About Me

Hi I'm Anni! I started using couchsurfing in summer 2016 and so far its been amazing! I have met many interesting people and shared some experiences with them. I for example ended up in kids summer camp in Chech Republic and almost missed a flight in Barcelona because of having too much fun with my new CS friends. So I'm very open for new experiences and adventures.

I'm designer from my background and specialized in sustainability and wellbeing related issues. My professional mission is to connect random people and to foster social wellbeing. I believe that by bringing new people together it is possible to create new learning opportunities and generate empathy and understanding. At the moment I'm building my own social enterprise with few friends. The aim is to build exchange program inside Finland for the elementary school students.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
